About Us

Clearview Primary is a full primary school in Rolleston Canterbury catering for New Entrant - Year 8 students. Our students’ learning and wellbeing are at the heart of our school. We are proud to be leading the way with future focused education in the Selwyn District.

Clearview Primary is a decile 10 school, occupying a large urban space of 7.4ha. The community that surrounds our primary school is diverse with a strong sense of family. There is great pride in the community. These characteristics encourage many couples and families to the area.

Our school has a range of playground spaces including spacious fields, a sandpit, vegetable gardens, hard courts, age appropriate adventure playgrounds and a multi purpose hall. These facilities are also used by a range of community groups. As a modern school built in 2010 we have grown to 750 students and over 35 nationalities are represented. Our community are highly supportive, and we have an active Parent Community Group who contribute to the resourcing of many school initiatives.

We begin the 2019 school year with 30 Homebases and we anticipate starting more new entrant classes as the year progresses. We utilise our flexible learning environments across the school for collaborative teaching and learning.

Our vision is for students to be “skilled thinkers and communicators stepping out with confidence”. We achieve this vision by providing learning, cultural and social experiences that:

● develop leadership

● provide challenge and high expectations for all students to achieve to a level of personal best

● empower students to create their own learning pathways, reflect on their progress and plan their next steps for learning

● support students to take risks, having them aware that failure is an important part of the learning cycle

● are collaborative and inclusive

● utilise technology effectively to support and enhance learning

● recognise the Treaty of Waitangi and provide contexts where language, culture and identity are affirmed

● reward effort and celebrate success, encouraging innovation and creativity

Clearview Primary - Our LogoOur logo captures the essence of Clearview Primary in a number of forms.

Firstly, the logo takes on the shape of an eye which depicts the clear view of the school site and the Southern Alps. The building design and outdoor areas have clean crisp lines and create a feeling of clarity and openness. The koru design on the outer parts of the logo represent our New Zealand heritage symbolising new beginnings, growth and learning as well as our desire to care for our natural resources and environment. The koru also reflect the connectedness of our students to their learning and to the global world beyond our school as they engage with their local community>New Zealand >wider global community.

Secondly, the logo encapsulates the vision, values and core beliefs of Clearview Primary. At the centre of the logo, is the vision we have for our students and all that we do should always link back to this. The next outer layer are the future focused competencies we deem important for Clearview. We have CLEAR competencies that we will model to each other, our students, parents and wider community. Finally the outer rim of our logo are the core beliefs we have about teaching and learning which is based on effective pedagogy.

Vision: Skilled thinkers and communicators stepping out with confidence

Competencies: Collaborate, Climb, Connect, Create, Care and Curiosity

Core Beliefs about teaching and learning: create a supportive learning environment, encourage reflective thought and action, provide sufficient opportunities to learn, facilitate shared learning, make connections to prior learning and experiences and enhance the relevance of

new learning

Finally, from a Māori perspective the logo design links to the 5 stones blessed and buried at the school site. The four river stones are dedicated to one of the four cardinal elements and to the guardian Atua of each element. These have influence over the four 'bodies' of the human person:

Fire: Io-matua-kore (the Creator) - the Spiritual BodyAir: Rakinui (Sky Father) - the Mental BodyWater: Takaroa (the God of the Seas and Oceans) - the Emotional BodyEarth: Papatuanuku (Earth Mother) - the Physical Body

The fifth stone, of pounamu, is the 'mauri stone’; The central stone in the configuration into which the mauri (the physical life force of the Creator) was named. It holds the name Te Kura o Marama.



CLEARVIEW COMPETENCIES

CULTURAL DIVERSITYRecognising New Zealand’s Cultural DiversityClearview Primary – Te Kura o Mārama, as appropriate to its community, will develop procedures and practices that reflect New Zealand’s cultural diversity. The three broad principles of The Treaty of Waitangi (Partnership, Protection and Participation) will provide the foundation for learning.

Clearview Primary will take all reasonable steps to cater for the needs of all diverse learners, including Māori and Pasifika students. Clearview is committed to ensure that our Māori and Pasifika learners enjoy educational success. To achieve this, we will use the guiding principles of the following key resource documents to support effective practice across our school: Ka Hikitia - Accelerating Success Strategy 2013-2017, Pasifika Education Plan 2013-2017, Tåtaiako, ERO’s latest report “Educationally Powerful Connections with Parents and Whanau” - Nov 2015 and Hautū - Māori Cultural Responsiveness Self Review Tool.

To achieve this, the school will:• Continue the development of cultural diversity for all staff and students through learning programmes• Provide opportunities for cultural activities and experiences, including Kapahaka• Sing waiata in assembly, and in classroom singing and music sessions• Use elements of Māori protocol as part of any official ceremony• Use resources in the curriculum which recognise New Zealand’s bi-cultural heritage• Embed Māori language and culture through all curriculum areas by using integrated planning approaches• Consult with the Māori and Pasifika communities as specified in the school procedural section• Be committed to developing and strengthening staff capabilities and understandings of cultural diversity• Continue with regular and ongoing contact with the local marae – Ngāti Moki Marae at Taumutu• Utilise local experts and resource people within our Clearview community to help support the practices of our school• Develop student achievement targets for priority learners

If a whanau requests a higher level of tikanga and/or te reo than is at present evident in our school’s Māori programme, the staff and family will discuss and explore the following options:• Further explanation of existing programmes• Further extend the existing programmes if and as appropriate• Combine with a neighbouring school for parts of the day/programme• Provide in-school support and resources to further enhance inclusion of te reo and tikanga Māori within the child’s learning environment• Explore other schools which may offer programmes closer to their expectations• Use of community expertise (people and places) to help with any of the above• Possible dual enrolment with the correspondence school

We also celebrate and value a variety of cultures by recognising cultural difference as appropriate, for example:• Integration of cultural perspectives throughout learning programmes across all levels• Convening parent support groups and meetings• Accessing cultural advisors • Exploring and enjoying cultural dance/food festivals

Specific Group

Annual Target Historical PositionTo improve Year 6 student achievement in Mathematics so that their achievement is closer to, at or above the expected curriculum level by the end of the school year (Term 4, 2019).

Analysis of school-wide mathematics data in December 2018 identified concerns in the Year 5 cohort of students. Data analysis revealed that 36% (40 students) were working below the curriculum expectations. Further investigation of assessment information indicates that refining student understanding of mathematical vocabulary, interpreting questions, verbalising what they thinking, using "Talk Moves" and increasing number knowledge are key priorities for the learning team. Continuing to embed mathematical mindsets and showing connections with real-life experiences will also be a focus.

Annual Target Historical PositionTo improve Year 4 student achievement in Writing so that their achievement is closer to, at or above the expected curriculum level by the end of the school year (Term 4, 2019).

Analysis of school-wide writing data in December 2018 identified concerns in the Year 3 cohort of students. Data analysis revealed that 31% (29 students) were working below the curriculum expectations. Further investigation of assessment information indicates that surface features such as spelling, punctuation and grammar are limiting factors to moving students forward. Continuing to strengthen deeper features, maintaining students’ motivation for writing and making connections with other aspects of Literacy will also be a focus.

Specific Group

Annual Target Historical PositionTo improve the number of learners identified on the Care competency rubric achieving at the developing stage or above by 10% across the school (Term 4, 2018)

Clearview Primary is into its third year of a three year journey with this global, collaborative and future-focused project called New Pedagogies for Deep Learning (NPDL). The project aims to strengthen 4 quadrants (learning partnerships, learning environment, new pedagogies and leveraging digital) to encourage and promote deep learning. We have resisted our original school competencies to be more future-focused and include student voice and direction in light of this. Our school wide focus this year is the competency care, due to the nature of our learning programmes and environments.
